Subject:      Oil pressure problems again...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Hello friends,

I'm having the dreaded oil pressure warning lamp and buzzer go off erratically in my 1990, 2100cc Vanagon GL. It happens both with a cold and warm motor, at high or low revs. I've changed both oil pressure sender units and checked the oil pressure at a VW garage, to no avail. Does anyone have schematics of the relevant circuitry? It should show TWO oil pressure senders, some brains on the instrument panel, a lamp and a buzzer. I want to monitor these senders so that if I get the warning I'll know who's the culprit (the senders, the instrument panel, or maybe something else). I've been waiting over a month for a Hayes Vanagon manual from the Bus Depot with no news yet, and who knows when I'll get. I don't want to burn a motor in the wait...(been there, done that...:-(

Thanks in advance...

Amnon
